Water network modelling
(OP)
Hi is there anyone who could advise me regarding the proper assigning of numbers of nodes in water network modelling? Is there a sequence to be followed or steps like a loop maybe in clockwise or counterclockwise? I am using epanet and watercaed software. Pls advise. . .thanks

As long as your system is logical and can be understood by others, you should be fine.

With modern software you have more options as francesca noted. If you want shorter labels than "street x street" you could always number your nodes based on a map grid. For example…several of our clients have utility base mapping with a grid overlay. A typical grid might be 500 feet x 500 feet and be indexed something like A to M east-west and 1 to 25 north-south. Within grid square F10, you could label the nodes F10-05, F10-10, F10-15, and so on.
